Community Tasting Note

  • R Z Likes this wine: 93 points

    January 3, 2024 - Deep color indeed, rich, full body, tannic grip, prominent fruit, black cherry/black raspberry, some oak, chunks of sediment on the cork and the bottom of the bottle, very impressive Barbera on its own, or with food (sausage and meatballs and Sullivan Street bread).
